It's Monday! What Are You Reading? January 29, 2024 #IMWAYR

It's Monday! What Are You Reading? is a place to meet up and share what you have been, are and about to be reading over the week. It's an opportunity to visit other blogs and to comment on their reads. And ... you can add to that ever growing TBR pile! So welcome everyone. This meme started with J Kaye's Blog and then was taken up by Sheila from Book Journey. Sheila then passed it on to Kathryn at the Book Date. And here we are!

Well, it seems to be warming up a bit here, in the 40's this week. I know winter is not done with us yet, but it is almost February. How did that happen?

Yesterday we watched football all day. Our family has been huge Chiefs fans for forever, even in the losing years. It's so exciting to be on a winning streak now. My DIL is a big Lions fan so we were cheering for them as well. The Chiefs made it to the Super Bowl again!! Are you a football fan?

I made a big pot of chili—perfect football-watching food, in my opinion—and our son and 9 year old grandson came over to watch the game with us. And a Chiefs win? What a perfect afternoon.

Thanks for stopping by. I hope you all have a good week.

Happy reading!

It's still weather-talk here. So bitterly cold. I haven't left the house in probably a week. Hubs is a sweetheart and goes out to get the mail for us so I don't even have to do that.

I finally took down our Christmas decorations. That's something I just avoid as long as I can. I'd be content leaving them up all year. Is that bad? We did talk about leaving the lights up around the windows. They just look so festive and make looking out at the snow much more enjoyable. When you do take down your decorations?

Thanks for stopping by. I hope you all have a good week.

Happy reading!
